Creation 15

[dodo_master]

[Action A: Guess who is all up in your business today, Mayfield! Cynric hasn't gotten all of his magic back, just two spells so far. One allows him to speak to his creations, which is only his dodo Hephaestus at the moment. The other is a magic detection spell that lets him find sources of magic within about a 50 yard radius of himself. these

[[Theta is out for her daily walk, though she looks decidedly troubled. She has for the past month, really. She nods politely to Cynric, though without a smile. She doesn't really have it in her to smile right now.

What she does have, however, are two magical items on her person, one around her weak knee, and one perched on her shoulder.]]

[dodo_master]

Ah, Theta, good day to you! Is something the matter?

[ergaleomancer]

...Only somewhat, Cynric. Only somewhat.

I'm...feeling so decidedly out of sorts lately...

[dodo_master]

So I can tell. Anything I can do?

[He's also looking at these points on magic on Theta's person, trying to figure out what is causing them.]

[ergaleomancer]

Unless you've figured out how to snap drones out of it...no.

[[She sighs, and one of those points of magic moves slightly--a clockwork cockroach crawls out from under her scarf and nuzzles against the side of her neck, trying to comfort her.]]

[dodo_master]

Ah, if only I could. This place would be so much better, then.

[Oh, so that's what it was! Fascinating! He's not so subtely trying to get a better look. Luckily, Theta's not much taller than Cynric.]

[ergaleomancer]

[[She follows Cynric's eyes, and she's happy to let him be a distraction to her from what she's feeling. She picks up the roach and holds it out to him.]]

Have I had a chance to show you Roachi?

[dodo_master]

I don't believe so! Is it a familiar?

[ergaleomancer]

He's a clockwork. I made him by hand. [[She smiles weakly; she's obviously proud of it, but something's really bothering her if Theta's missing an opportunity to wax poetical about her own awesomeness.]]

[dodo_master]

Oh, very nice! [Sort of like a clockwork golem, he figures. he leans in to get a better look. What is personal space.]

[ergaleomancer]

[[Theta doesn't actually particularly care about that, and she smiles weakly as Cynric investigates.]]

He's been my companion for many years...

Do you want to come have a cup of tea? I finally have a decent blend from home.

[dodo_master]

[Big smile!] Oh, that sounds good. This town could use some good tea.

[ergaleomancer]

Well, I don't intend to share with anyone besides my friends.
